This makes it a “natural” choice for effective fat loss. Guarana is a herb that grows within the Brazilian Amazon rainforest. It contains significant amounts of guaranine (natural caffeine), stimulating the adrenal glands to release hormones like epinephrine, norephinephrine (aka adrenaline) and dopamine. These hormones in turn enhance thermogenesis – the body’s ability to free fatty acids and use them for energy production (i.e. fat loss) as well as energy, endurance, and mental clarity. Sida Cordifolia, a plant native to North Eastern Brazil, is included in this product for its ability to stimulate carbohydrate metabolism and suppress fat storage. White Willow tree bark contains a compound which is metabolised to salicylic acid in the body. White Willow tree bark is used in many weight loss formulas for its ability to raise the metabolic rate and enhance the action of other herbs.

It provides a source of auxiliary fuel during endurance exercise. Formulated using state-of-the-art research, BCAA is one of the few available muscle-building supplements that provide a 4:1:1 scientifically proven ratio of BCAAs for improved results. BCCAs are necessary to maintain muscle protein synthesis, and prevent the body from using the muscle as a source of fuel. BCAAs are not produced by the body naturally. Therefore Pure Nutrition Technology’s BCAA supplementation is essential, supplying the body with sufficient amounts of amino acids to prevent muscle tissue breakdown, and reduce muscle soreness and fatigue. By stimulating muscle protein synthesis, PURE BCAA also induces muscle gains, even in the absence of weight training, and allows one to train at higher intensities for longer periods by providing the body with glucose, once glycogen stores have been depleted. PURE BCCA also includes Glutamine and citruline maleate, ensuring the fastest possible delivery of this superior supplement to the muscles. Benefits Rapid muscle recovery Minimise muscle damage Reduced muscle soreness Increased levels of aerobic and anaerobic capacity Slower onset of fatigue Assists in alleviation of muscle inflammation Ingredients Barley Malt Extract L-Leucine L-Isoleucine L-Valine L-Citrulline DL Mallate L-Glutamine Nutritional Information Serving size: 1 measure (approx 11g) per serving Carbohydrates L-Leucine L-Isoleucine L-Valine L-Glutamine Citrulline Maleate PURE Glutamine R206.00 each PURE Glutamine is expertly formulated for increased availability of muscular L- Glutamine – providing enhanced muscle gains due to optimum protein metabolism and rapid recovery. It also serves as an immune system booster, especially for endurance athletes (cycling, ultra-distance triathletes) and body builders. The amino acid L-Glutamine controls protein synthesis within muscle cells. It speeds up muscle tissue repair by transporting nitrogen to muscle cells – an important action in protein utilisation. Post workout, the immediate reserve source of glucose for muscles (glycogen) is depleted and can only be replenished quickly by using PURE Glutamine. Acting as an anabolic precursor for muscle growth, the L-Glutamine present in PURE Glutamine increases the amount of glycogen synthesised in the liver and muscles, therefore making muscles larger and fuller. Prolonged exercise demands greater release and uptake of L-Glutamine by the body, adversely affecting the cells of the immune system and making the athlete more prone to viral infections. Post training supplementation with PURE Glutamine reduces the risk of infections, and prevents associated immune impairment or immunodepression. L-Alanine has several properties that are useful to athletes and others trying to build muscle and improve stamina. During anaerobic exercise (weightlifting/sustained running) muscles produce lactate and L-Alanine as by-products. These are carried by the bloodstream to the liver, where L-Alanine can be re-used to regenerate glucose and serve as an energy source once the liver is depleted of glycogen. In addition, L-Alanine possesses the ability to help maintain the health of the prostate. Research has also shown that L-Alanine, in combination with L-Glutamine, as presented in PURE Glutamine causes a rapid increase in uptake of L-Glutamine. Benefits Stimulates muscle glycogen synthesis Stimulates muscle protein synthesis and muscle tissue growth Reduces muscle soreness and improves muscle tissue repair Improves high intensity exercise performance Nutritional support for immune system Improves gut barrier function Rapid water absorption from gut Ingredients L-Alanine L-Glutamine Nutritional Information Serving size: 1 level measure (approx 9g) per 9g serving L-Glutamine L-Alanine PURE Whey Protein R289.00 each Exercise increases amino acid requirements which are, in turn, replenished through protein degradation/muscle breakdown. This can lead to losses in both muscle size and strength and, as a result, decreased physical performance. PURE Whey Protein is superbly formulated to restore protein balance after exercise. Its premium blend of highly bioavailable proteins rapidly restores muscle tissue and energy, minimising muscle breakdown. PURE Whey Protein is an excellent choice of protein for all ages. Whey protein hydrolysate in PURE Whey Protein is partially broken down to short chains of 2-3 amino acids, allowing accelerated digestion and absorption of protein from the gut (within 10 mins). Whey protein hydrolysate replenishes muscle glycogen stores for the ultra-fast recovery of muscle strength and exercise-induced muscle damage. It also equips the body to continue to tackle demanding physical activity. Whey protein isolate (WPI) is the purest form of protein with a protein content of over 90%, fat content less than 0.2% and zero carbs. As part of a balanced diet, WPI improves lean body weight, contributes to a well-functioning immune system and promotes performance and recovery. DigeSEB® is a premium, all-encompassing blend of digestive enzymes to support digestive health. This enzyme combination optimises the digestion, absorption and bioavailability of amino acids. DigeSEB® is a proprietary blend of Advanced Enzymes. PURE Whey Protein is compatible with low-carbohydrate diets, as it provides high quality protein without the carbohydrates and fat content. It is soy free, as it contains dairy protein, and sugar free. It is also appropriate for lactose-intolerant individuals. Benefits DURING EXERCISE A high percentage of immediately available amino acids supports protein synthesis and muscle growth High quality protein available within 10 minutes of intake Ultra-fast recovery of muscle strength AFTER EXERCISE Rapid recovery from exercise-induced muscle damage Restores protein balance in muscles Minimises muscle damage Ingredients Whey Protein Hydrolysate 80% Whey Protein Isolate 90% Enzyme Blend – DigeSEB® Lactitol – Prebiotic Nutritional Information Serving size: 3 level measures (approx 50 g) Carbohydrates Amino Acid Composition:L-Alanine, Methionine, L-Arginine, L- Pheylalanine, Aspartic Acid, L-Cysteine, Serine,Glutamic Acid, Threonine, Glycine, Tryptophane, Histidine,L-Tyrosine, L-Isoleucine, L-Valine,L- Leucine, L-Lysine PURE Creatine R168.00 each PURE Creatine is a supplement used to maintain high-energy phosphates causing enhanced and maintained power output during brief periods of high-intensity exercise. Using PURE Creatine, in combination with resistance training, leads to greater gains in lean body mass, maximal strength and weight-lifting performance, allowing the athlete to do more repetitions of a given exercise before fatigue sets in. And, because it decreases recovery time, more frequent workouts are possible. PURE Creatine is formulated with added Beta Alanine, using quality ingredients scientifically chosen to maximise creatine delivery to muscle and achieve the full benefits of creatine supplementation. In PURE Creatine the easily accessible carbohydrate Vitargo is combined with creatine to increase muscle creatine uptake and performance gains. Creatine is synthesised in the liver and kidneys. It is released into the blood stream to be actively taken up by the muscle cells where it binds as a high-energy phosphate that can supply energy when ATP is depleted during high-intensity workouts. Oral ingestion of Beta Alanine, as found in PURE Creatine, has been shown to be effective in providing a significant benefit for athletes participating in high-intensity exercise by reducing the rate of fatigue in muscle, and achieving greater lean muscle mass. FACT: Supplementation with creatine is effective for maintaining muscular performance during the initial phase of high-volume resistance-training, as well as after the rebound phase of short-term resistance-training overreaching. Benefits BEFORE EXERCISE Enhances muscle energy Enhances work performance Maintains power output Increases muscle creatine and phosphocreatine stores AFTER EXERCISE Accelerated phosphocreatine synthesis after exercise Improved lean body mass Increased muscular strength Increased muscle size Increase protein synthesis / decrease protein breakdown Ingredients Barley Malt Extract Creatine Monohydrate Creatine Gluconate Creatine AKG Beta Alanine L-Histidine Nutritional Information Serving size: 1 heaped measure (approx 10 g) per 10 g serving Carbohydrates Creatine Proprietary Blend Beta Alanine L-Histidine PURE Massive Muscle R289.00 each PURE Massive Muscle maximises glycogen stores before exercise, maintains blood glucose during exercise and induces rapid recovery of muscle glycogen after exercise. It consists of a special blend of carbohydrates to prevent an initial insulin spike and drop, releasing sugar slowly and evenly so blood glucose is kept constant. PURE Massive Muscle supplies a constant source of steady release carbohydrates to be used as fuel – effectively preventing the breakdown of muscle protein. Proteins are the building blocks of muscle. Glucose and glycogen are essential sources of fuel during intense physical activity. It is therefore vital to replenish the glucose stores being lost during weight training or workouts and to repair muscle. PURE Massive Muscle supplies a constant source of carbohydrates effectively preventing ingested dietary protein as well as muscle protein to be used as fuel. In addition, PURE Massive Muscle combines proteins and carbohydrates to ensure that carbohydrates remain the body’s primary source of fuel, and the protein you ingest is used solely to build lean muscle. PURE Massive Muscle includes a Creatine/HMB combo – two ingredients that build on each other’s strengths for a synergistic effect on muscle mass. PURE Massive Muscle also contains: Free amino acids for their anabolic qualities and ability to reduce muscle breakdown in times of rest Antioxidants (Goji Berry) – an important factor in achieving optimum health in times of physical stress Panax Ginseng for its ability to increase blood flow throughout the entire body, transporting essential nutrients to the muscles.
